Bridget - East Acton - Piano

Methodology

I teach Bassoon from beginner to a high level and teach piano, classical theory/composition, musicianship and music theory exams (ABRSM only) to grade 5 level.

- Tell me about your qualifications.

I studied for a Bachelor of Music at Auckland University (NZ) and then completed post grad study at Sydney Conservatorium. I've played in a large range of ensembles on bassoon, from duos and chamber music to large orchestras. In my undergraduate degree my courses included composition, keyboard, harmony and analysis, and music history.

- How much do you charge?

I charge £25 per hour or £15 for half hour lessons. Travel costs are included in this fee.

- Where do you teach?

I teach at your home and am willing to travel to anywhere in the greater London area with good public transport.

- When are you available?

I have a flexible schedule as I am self employed and can teach throughout the year. Afternoons and evenings are preferable but not essential.

I teach bassoon from beginner to a high level. On a full size bassoon students will need to be around nine years or older to begin. I teach piano, classical theory/composition, musicianship and music theory exams from 5 years, beginner to a grade 5 level.

Background
